What customers say
Great spot near Four Waterfalls trail, stunning views. Friendly owners, flexible check-in, good value. Basic but clean facilities. Campfires allowed. Some pitches are sloped and noise can be an issue.

Liked Really nice site. Everything you need. Not fancy but it's a camp site, not a hotel. Don't expect fancy when you go camping for a few quid a night. Only staff I met were very friendly and helpful. Perfect location to visit the waterfalls. Definitely visiting again.

Great location but not an amazingly ‘comfortable’ stay.
Unpowered grass tent site
Liked Location
Disliked Not good value accommodation. Grass very long (just comparing to other campsites!) Toilets unclean, stank of urine and threatening notice saying if you don’t turn the light off in the shower the ‘free’ service would be removed??!! Is this not included in the price? Can a sensor light be fitted instead like in most other campsites?

Very good. Would recommend
Unpowered grass tent site
Liked We liked that there were no fixed pitches and no restrictions on space.
We liked the clean toilets and plenty of hot water, although it was a little walk from the site.
The well stocked cleaning area, dish cloths, washing up liquid, plenty of hot water etc.
The ability to light a fire and the fact they sold logs.
Proximity to Four Falls walk.
Disliked That the showers in the field weren’t working.
